Liked the 'high potential energy' analogy but I think it misses a point. As far as I know, your Nix knowledge and home-manager configurations are transferrable to MacOS and other Linux distros as well. > I'd rather beat my head against a wall for a day figuring out how to configure something than get locked into an OS-specific configuration that I can't move elsewhere. Many people use Nix and home-manager on their MacOS or non-NixOS Linux setups. You can use Nix package manager without committing yourself to the constraints of NixOS. > You are telling me I have to do things the "NixOS way" but also your documentation is bad / inferior? Absolutely no thanks. Don't know about others but I don't tell you that for sure. I think poor documentation is among the most understandable reasons to NOT use Nix. In the end, I am just trying out things to see whether they benefit me or not. Not here to sell you anything.
